Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Composite material
  • Metal
  • Metallurgy

His primary scientific interests are in Nanocrystalline material, Metallurgy, Grain size, Grain boundary strengthening and Indentation hardness. His Nanocrystalline material research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Deformation and Dislocation. His research brings together the fields of Composite material and Metallurgy.

His study looks at the relationship between Grain size and topics such as Vickers hardness test, which overlap with Coble creep. His Grain boundary strengthening research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Young's modulus and Elastic modulus. The study incorporates disciplines such as Creep, Indentation and Grain growth in addition to Indentation hardness.

His most cited work include:

  • Elastic and tensile behavior of nanocrystalline copper and palladium (703 citations)
  • Mechanical behavior of nanocrystalline Cu and Pd (426 citations)
  • Rapid stress-driven grain coarsening in nanocrystalline Cu at ambient and cryogenic temperatures (307 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

J.R. Weertman spends much of his time researching Nanocrystalline material, Metallurgy, Grain size, Composite material and Microstructure. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Ultimate tensile strength, Deformation mechanism, Dislocation, Young's modulus and Inert gas. His Grain size study also includes fields such as

  • Softening which connect with Hardening,
  • Elastic modulus that connect with fields like Nanoindentation.

His Composite material research integrates issues from Transmission electron microscopy and Sputter deposition. His study in Microstructure is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Volume fraction, Annealing and Particle size. His research investigates the connection with Indentation hardness and areas like Creep which intersect with concerns in Coble creep.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Nanocrystalline material (55.67%)
  • Metallurgy (50.52%)
  • Grain size (38.14%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2002-2012)?

  • Nanocrystalline material (55.67%)
  • Metallurgy (50.52%)
  • Grain size (38.14%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

J.R. Weertman mainly focuses on Nanocrystalline material, Metallurgy, Grain size, Grain boundary and Copper. His Nanocrystalline material study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Compression test, Stress, Composite material, Compression and Deformation mechanism. His studies examine the connections between Metallurgy and genetics, as well as such issues in Indentation, with regards to Indentation hardness, Crystal twinning and Nanoscopic scale.

J.R. Weertman combines subjects such as Vickers hardness test and Creep with his study of Indentation hardness. J.R. Weertman focuses mostly in the field of Grain size, narrowing it down to matters related to Transmission electron microscopy and, in some cases, X-ray crystallography. His studies in Copper integrate themes in fields like Shear, Microstructure and Shear stress.

Between 2002 and 2012, his most popular works were:

  • Rapid stress-driven grain coarsening in nanocrystalline Cu at ambient and cryogenic temperatures (307 citations)
  • Deformation in nanocrystalline metals (253 citations)
  • In-situ TEM tensile testing of DC magnetron sputtered and pulsed laser deposited Ni thin films (181 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Composite material
  • Metal
  • Ceramic

J.R. Weertman focuses on Nanocrystalline material, Metallurgy, Grain growth, Indentation hardness and Indentation. His Nanocrystalline material research includes elements of Grain boundary strengthening, Grain boundary, Creep, Stress and Volume fraction. Many of his studies involve connections with topics such as Physical vapor deposition and Grain boundary strengthening.

Grain boundary is a subfield of Composite material that he investigates. The various areas that J.R. Weertman examines in his Creep study include Vickers hardness test and Grain size. He interconnects Deformation mechanism, Deformation and Dislocation in the investigation of issues within Volume fraction.
